(Proverbs 9:15 KJV) To call passengers who go right on their ways:
Who are these “passengers” (5674/1870) ( who pass NASB (5674a))? They are the righteous. They are the ones who are on the “ways” (paths NASB) (734) that are “right” (straight NASB) (3474).
Actually it is not just that they are on the right path. The righteous are in the process of “making straight” (3474) their ways. Joshua said, “Choose this day...” (Joshua 24:15). Jesus said, “Follow me.” These words appear 46 times in the gospels. There is an active involvement in being a follower of Jesus. There is a buy-in that is expected.
Christianity was not designed as a spectator sport.
So? Make your path straight (NASB). Go right (KJV). Righteousness is required, not optional.
